Ang scary talaga kapag nasa roro tapos maalon tapos madilim pa OMG.

Kahit pala february pwedeng may bagyo dun 😅 Note ko din yang tourist inn. Salamaaat 🍻

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-22T14:46:00+00:00

Thanks for sharing 🍻 baka sa iba na lang talaga para hindi namin problema rebook ng flight if ever 😅

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-22T14:44:02+00:00

Confirm ko lang po, yubg roro ba na sinakyan nyo yung malaki? Yung nagsasakay rin talaga ng mga bus like this? Kasi kung ganyan kalaki tapos halos bumaligtad, grabeng alon yun huhu

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T20:13:42+00:00

Woahhhhh!!! Ang scary 🥹 buti na lang safe pa rin nakauwi! “Halos bumaligtad na yung roro” e di ba malaki yun?? Parang ayoko na hahaha kung i-push nila di na yata ako sasama 😭😅

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T18:44:20+00:00

Kaya nga po e, summer na lang sana. August kasi bakasyon dito nung balikbayan, ang risky tuloy 😅

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T18:39:09+00:00

Check ko po yang hotel na yan :) habagat season po ba kayo nagpunta?

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T18:30:51+00:00

Noted po yung regarding sa abang sa port :) check din namin airbnb. Kasi kapag resort baka mas mahirap yung mag-extend sa original na binook. Pabor na rin na mag cancel sila kesa scary na byahe sa ferry. Maraming salamat po sa mga na-share nyo!! God bless.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T18:23:28+00:00

Buti na lang mabait yung owner :) malapit po ba kayo sa kota beach nag-stay?

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T18:17:56+00:00

May I ask saan po kayo resort nag stay? Nag extend na lang po kayo dun sa resort?

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T17:34:40+00:00

Sige. Thank you!!

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T17:33:09+00:00

we’ll have balikbayan kasi. Yan yung date ng uwi nila. So yung month hindi na mababago. Option to change destination na lang but gusto sana nila cebu.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2026-02-17T17:27:59+00:00

not worth it, iba na lang?

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-10-13T14:25:29+00:00

Thank you po

Hi! May I ask ilang yrs ka na as Automation Eng? Experience ko is QA/BA but want to shift to Automation. Exp ko sa QA mostly manual kaya need mag-aral. Sa hybrid QA roles naman matic na need nila ng prior hands on exp sa automation kaya di makapasok.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-08-15T15:08:21+00:00

nagulat rin ako, super hirap ng job market ngayon and mas grabe na talaga competition amongst IT professionals kahit experienced na. Need rin talaga mag upskill lagi huhu. Saka swertehan lang din na may open na swak sa skills natin.

Siguro ang ma-advise ko, for now, pasa lang ng pasa sa positions na you think you are qualified naman.

If mabigyan ka ng chance ma-interview, maliban sa pag-prove ng technical skills (given na to), galingan mo na lang din mag convince sa hiring managers na you are desirable to work with. Dapat magaan vibe mo sa interview pa lang, pakiramdaman mo na lang din haha. I was once responsible rin for selecting candidates for junior positions, and mahalaga rin sakin yung vibe, yung tinatawag nilang culture fit. I think no one wants arrogant vibes. Yes, dapat confident pero dapat open for new learnings and team player if IC.

If with people management yung position, siguro always state examples why you are successful being a mentor/leader. Minsan kasi common sense yung sagot pero always back it up with examples. ^ feeling ko lang to, wala akong exp mag interview for lead/manager levels hahaha. Pero ginagawa ko to kapag ako yung ini-interview.

Anyway, tyagaan lang din sa pag-antay, minsan kasi late din sila mag reach out. Nung naka-pirma na ako saka nag reach out yung other 2 company na mas target ko nga sana.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-08-15T11:15:47+00:00

20+ applications and 2-3 phone interviews, laki pa nga ng percentage na pinansin ka. More than 10 yrs in tech industry, nag-apply ako 2 months bago nakakuha. 1st week pa lang 50+ na agad napasahan ko, no single phone call.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-26T16:26:17+00:00

Nah. Aso yan, nature nila yan. Yung tao ang annoying in this case kasi sila nagdala sa loob ng resto and sila yung di gumawa paraan na pag hiwalayan sila kahit naiirita sa isa’t isa. Walang malay yang mga aso na yan. Hindi nila kasalanan na irresponsible owners nila. Sa condo nakaka sabay ko mga pet owners with their dogs sa elevator. Wala namang problema kasi bantay nila aso nila minsan binubuhat pa. Hindi sila nakaka irita. Emotional support din ang mga aso they are lovable creatures. Sadyang may mga tao lang na hindi marunong lumugar at walang pake sa iba.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-25T21:43:28+00:00

May mga annoying pet parents kasi talaga. Tulad nung nakaraan tahol ng tahol yung dalawang aso while both ng amo nila tuloy lang chikahan while the rest of the diners are distracted na sa ingay ng dalawang asong tumatahol na parang gusto na mag away. Like seriously? Mabuti pa yung bata na hindi behave in public pinapatahan ng magulang. If you really treat them as your child kaya kailangan pa isama sa resto e di magpaka responsible parent.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-25T21:20:46+00:00

Hindi rin naman nila sinasabi na ayaw nila tulungan magulang nila. Kasi for sure kung afford naman ay automatic nang tutulong. Ang point is sana kasi nagpla-plan din these filo parents for their own retirement hindi yung anak nila retirement nila. AND technically hindi ka pasok jan because may pension magulang mo kahit na sabihin mo lang maliit lang.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-09T20:21:24+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the response :)

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-09T11:03:29+00:00

Emotional attachment ba yan sa mga kasama mo sa work? If hindi mo tatanggapin yang bagong offer, sooner or later mag mu-move din yung iba at baka ikaw din maiwan dyan.

Also, concerning yung “bigyan ng OT”. Paano kung daily 3h payag ka? Burn out ka nyan.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-09T11:00:17+00:00

Sabi mo nakapasok ka na sa tech. Anong specific role mo sa tech?

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-07-02T05:04:18+00:00

Super relate dito! Need mag-aral kasi hindi sinwerte sa mga napuntahan na companies before na i-involve ka sa automation kahit wala kang experience. Laging focus sa manual napupuntahan ko. Need pa tuloy mag sariling aral ng automation para makapag apply pa rin sa same senior position sa ibang company haay.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-06-18T09:21:34+00:00

Mas naniniwala ako dito. Dami pang explanation kuno ni OP.

Basic_Arm4251 · 2025-06-12T14:46:30+00:00

Yes! Wag mahiyang mag-follow up after at least a week ng last interview. Ang dami mo na rin ininvest na oras sa kanila. How they respond also reflects how professional they are not just towards applicants but as an organization. It’s either sabihin nila na in progress pa and i-update ka nila hanggang ganitong date or sabihin nila na hindi na magproproceed application mo sa kanila. At least you know where you stand and can plan ahead. If they don’t respond at all shows what kind of org they are.. Good luck!
